User reviews

Users appreciate that Go Paddling helps find paddling launch points and includes helpful safety features. However, the app suffers from missing vital location details, frequent errors, and broken account/login functionality. Map pin accuracy issues and a poor user interface further hamper usability. Many feel the app has declined significantly and become practically useless without key information and community contributions.

Pros

Helpful for finding paddling launch locations with map indicators.
Provides safety features such as trip details accessible to friends and family.
Allows users to add photos and comments about locations.
Some users find the app interface generally usable and appreciate its existence as a dedicated paddling resource.
Can be useful for beginners or those looking for less crowded paddling spots.

Cons

App frequently shows errors like "sorry, we can't find this information" for launch site details, making locations unusable.
Most location details (directions, amenities, user comments) are missing or unavailable.
Account creation and login processes are troublesome and often fail with server errors.
Pins on the map are sometimes inaccurately placed, making real-world location finding difficult.
The interface is considered unintuitive and clunky by multiple users, with annoying features like repeated lifejacket reminders.

It started giving the message "sorry can't find this information " on every launch site. I have checked permissions, reloaded, etc, and I can't see anything about the launch sites - no directions, no comments, no info, no map. Just the main map with the red dots. It fails when I click on a launch site. Still works fine on my spouse's phone.

They shut it down, log in doesn't work, my saved routes are gone, the app hasn't worked in a year. I was hanging on & waiting for a fix to come along, but this was the second season without GoPaddling. I miss what it was. The website has deleted or lost all the valuable launch points data and information that had been provided by the public over the last decade. Really disappointed.
